I just looked at my IS stats, made some maths and thought: "This month seems even worse than the horrible April!". How does your May stats at IS look like compared to April?

Too early to really know, but I'm trending 50% above last month.  Which was a seriously lousy month, thanks for reminding me.  :-\

All sites made a good start, and Istock is doing worse than ever.   Average 40% below May 2010.

Better than last month so far with the same 3  images making up 30 -50% of sales.

Very solid, better than April. If that goes on, maybe it will be better than May 2010.

Well, April wasn't "horrible" for me, just so-so;  and May seems good, so far.

Up to last night's reprogramming outage I was well ahead of the end of last month since then I haven't had a single sale. But even well ahead of April was still only 50% of what SS is doing.

Don't know what is going on.  >:(
0 sales yesterday when I normally have 7-10. Hope it's just a fluke and not a trend.

This month I'm already on half the income I had in April. April was very bad, so I guess they've been switching around the Best Match again?

It's still early but so far this month Istock has slipped to just 24.8% of my total microstock earnings. That's their lowest ever and it would appear that the slide, relative to other agencies, continues downwards. Two years ago they were at 40% and last May they were at 34.6%. The main beneficiary of course is SS.

"IS has fallen and can't get up"

Sucks last month, still * this month.

The behavior of my income is like what many of you report; Shutterstock $$ has gone up considerably and so has Dreamstime.  If the trend for this month at IS continues I will be 50% down in income, and I'm not talking $1 to 50 cents either.  And I am also not talking 2 grand to 1 grand, but somewhere in between.  So the income drop, to me, is significant...hundreds less per month.
